Re: Ground redevelopment
The reason that the club haven't redeveloped the old stand is because it is not viable. What would a new stand cost? Three, four, five million? You'd have to sell an awful lot of hospitality boxes in order for it to pay for itself. There's no point in bankrupting the club for the sake of a vanity pr...

Re: Player of the year and other nominations
Tozer for me.
Has been so good that he has allowed Duff to play with a back three not four. Has impacted up the other end as well.
His goal-line clearance against Man City typified the commitment of the whole team.

Re: Stevenage v Cheltenham Town
We are trying to win the league while only scoring only one goal a game. Will be quite an achievement if we can do it.

Boyle Raglan Tozer. The best back line in league 2.
Not surprised by the interest in Boyle. Goal scoring centre halfs are precious.

Re: Cooper sacked
The sense of entitlement at that club is incredible. Some of the replacement manager names being banded about on their forum are laughable.
He must have known he was on his way out. You don't let the managers contract run out if you want to keep him. He only had a month left anyway

Re: Morecambe v Cheltenham Town

Re: Darren Ferguson watching Ryan Broom
Agree Robin
Hopefully Duff will keep Broom focussed on continuing his good form this time while negotiations go on in the background
Has to be at least £250,000 based on what I saw last night. His assist for the first goal was breathtaking

I'm sorry but Forster is really poor.
I don't know what his contract situation is but we should get rid if at all possible.
There are far too many poor players but thankfully Duffo is getting the best out of what he has
It's the sign of a good manager
